ickaimpOkay... we only have a little bit left of internet access before we have to go back to hit and run attacks at the libary.
So we're looking for ficcage to download and save on our 'puter at home to read at a later date.
Anyone have any favourite LONG fic they'd like to recomend? Slash or gen, doesn't matter what the paring is as long as it's well written.
Um... current series we've been reading:
Due South, Harry Potter, The Sentinel, Stargate SG-1, Xena, FullMetal Alchemist or just about any Anime series really... ^^;; As long as we're familiar with it. And if we're not familiar, we'll get familiar. >D

Title: Coexistance
By: Darkcyan
Fandom: Harry Potter
Genre: AU, shounen-ai hints, post-4th year

Title: Poles Apart
Fandom: Megaman X (with a side of Megaman, the original series)

Fandom: Various...

Series you should get familiar with:
Death Note (http://www.directmanga.com/series/deathnote.html) - by the same artist as Hikaru no Go. Yay.
Rising Impact (http://www.directmanga.com/series/risingimpact.html) - if only to mock the golf. And Lancelot. Gods, I want to mock Lancelot...
I'd almost suggest Prince of Tennis, but that's a 150+ series and the fangirls with their crack pairing scare me some. *clings to Tezuka/Echizen-crack :P* It takes very long to dl that many episodes off IRC... if you ever do visit IRC... Even longer by bittorrent.
Another few I'd suggest are Fruits Basket and Tactics, but both are licensed so you'll either have to be sneaky or be a good girl and do what Hakuba would prefer you to do. *nods*
I think that'd be more than enough, ne?

There should be a page somewhere called HeroesAndLovers that has the majority of the scans.

Date: 2005-01-08 06:39 pm (UTC)Don't have much to recommend myself... Only got Re-Drawn into fanficdom recently, and then again, I've been sticking to Det. Conan and Magik Kaito. My brain is too scattered to follow more than one fandom at a time. Good luck!

Date: 2005-01-08 12:56 am (UTC)Title: Howl's Moving Castle
By: Diana Wynne Jones
Genre: Fantasy
Comments: Sure... it was written for tweens(? 9-14 age range), but it's hilarious and well worth it. Miyazaki-sensei's made an anime out of it this past November.
Series: Last Herald-Mage trilogy
By: Mercedes Lackey
Genre: Fantasy, slash
Comments: You might wanna get the first book (Magic's Pawn) and read that before moving on to the others. See if you like it.
Oh and... another anime recc... Kyou Kara Maou (commonly referred to as 'KKM' by the lazy and 'Maruma' by the Japanese fandom [I like 'Maruma' better. Less confusion with other series]). It's so wacky. I think you'd like it very much.
Re: Oh and...
Date: 2005-01-08 01:19 am (UTC)Just got started on KKM (Yeah, you're right, Maruma sounds better), have episodes 1-15, but only saw the first one. Was laughing so hard throughout it. ^^
Waiting to drag either MOrgan and/or Ysabet into a marathon of it. Perversion is always much more fun as a group activity.
Thanks!
